About the song
The engine of desire...
If you had a thought in your pretty little head...
Without lust... could there be rock and roll?
It would certainly set sexual procreation back a few squares, anyhow. And that would put a big dent in the evolution of the species... if young girls weren't attracted to young guys with high tight pompadours... pretty soon back into the primordial slime with the whole ballgame. Er... so to speak. [more]

Lyrics
Pretty Little Head
Babe I've been alone for such a long time
this loneliness tearin' me apart
I got a pain in my head and a fire in my loins
and a whole lot of empty in my heart
If you had a thought in your pretty little head
Then maybe we could talk
today we're alive tomorrow we're dead
so I think right now we'd better rock
I look in your eyes and I wonder what
is going on in your mind
Are you really where you are
or where you'll be tomorrow night?
your leg touches mine beneath the table
I feel your hand slide up my thigh
I feel kinda dizzy I feel kinda high
I feel like I'm gonna die
If you had a thought in your pretty little head
Then maybe we could talk
today we're alive tomorrow we're dead
so I think right now we'd better rock
